Summary
This book represents the drawing together of ideas, experiences and expectations in preparation for the 10-year review of the first Earth Summit in Rio, 1992 where world leaders adopted a comprehensive programme of action for implementing sustainable development worldwide. It offers analysis on critical issues on the International Sustainable Development Agenda as well as inviting key major group representatives to look at the reasons for slow progress so far in addressing those issues. Chapters are written by representatives of Governments, the UN, Trade Unions, NGOs, Women's Groups and Local Governments. The sections dealing with existing over-riding concerns and emerging issues cover a wide range of economic, social and environmental concerns around the issues being addressed. Each chapter offers policy options on the way forward and the role the 2002 summit can take in this process.
